Antoine Pitrou added the comment:

For the record, SSLSocket.pending() was added in b59825d9db8f with the commit 
message "get SSL support to work again". It isn't used anywhere in the stdlib. 
It isn't used by asyncio, Tornado or Twisted. It isn't necessary to write 
non-blocking SSL applications, and it can actually lead to misunderstandings as 
some messages on this issue show.

I'd rather deprecate the method than start documentating it.
